I'm assuming you've been looking at all sorts of bikes, buying a bike is 10% logic, 90% whatever bike you fall in love with. A used Monster should be pretty cheap, and if its already dinged, all the better so you won't feel guilty. Plus its Eye-talian, so you know its cool!
The only safety equipment I sometimes ride without is a leather jacket, and that's a choice I've considered and risk I'm willing to take, although when I have the jingle I may get a lightweight summer nylon jacket with kevlar inserts. My brotherinlaw just got pegged a few weeks ago, and, of course, his helmet saved his life. He never saw the guy who hit him.
Also get on the 'net and find a ducati owners bb like saabnet, I go to one for my bmw and its great info.
Have fun, and keep the shiny side up!
